Bongino saying the quiet--and cynical--part out loud.
In other words: I was making money shoveling conspiracy bullshit without having any facts and conning my audience to make a buck. After I leave the FBI, I will get back to that.
What a confession.

The American president can be easily bought for the right price. Every dictator in the world knows this.
MAGA should never be confused with patriots or patriotism. MAGA doesn’t actually give a tiny rat’s ass about America, they only care about themselves.

“Trump has delivered many of the rewards that Biden merely dangled before the Saudis,” Franklin Foer writes. One reason may be the kingdom “licensing the Trump name for a series of lavish mega-projects across the Gulf”:

Rule of thumb. If someone says:
"Look, that's just the way things are"
Chances are they are benefitting from an injustice they don't want to talk about.

As reported by the NYT today, in May 2021, RFK Jr. not only tried to get the FDA to revoke its approval of COVID19 vaccines, but also to recommend chloroquine and ivermectin for treatment of COVID19. He used frank misinformation to “support” his point. You can read his letter below.

I don’t get why Trump’s raging at the New York Times or why he called that reporter ugly. Honestly, they went easy on him, skipping the part where the anger fits the dementia pattern.

Senator can you please talk about indicting/imprisoning these people? We can’t just “move on” from Trump era “for the good of the country” when we take control of Congress next year. These people need punishment or else we are going to clean house and elect new reps. This is the moderate position.

You're a high ranking government official and you shouldn't make things up.
Your 70% number is just a fabrication.
And it's TOTALLY not true that "every single" person you detained is here illegally. For instance, many were allowed in so they could apply for asylum.
